About This Home

There are homes that "look nice", and homes that transport you. This is the latter. Perched at tree-canopy level in one of the South Bay’s most private coastal enclaves, this architectural residence dissolves the boundary between inside and out. Floor-to-ceiling walls of glass frame ever-changing views of sunlight filtering through mature trees, while the home itself feels organically woven into the landscape. Inside, the spirit of mid-century modern design remains pure: open, light-filled spaces, clean lines, and a seamless floor plan that encourages effortless living. That's not by accident, the architect who designed this home did so for his own family, and those bespoke personal touches are evident throughout the home. Thoughtful renovations have been made that honor the original character while introducing contemporary comfort and function throughout. The heart of the home is the beautifully remodeled kitchen, featuring custom bookmatched walnut cabinetry and a generous quartzite island perfect for cooking, conversation, and casual entertaining. Three of four bathrooms have been refreshed with modern tile and sleek fixtures, while warm natural oak hardwood flooring runs throughout. Outside, newer stucco and carefully-terraced landscaping give the property refined curb appeal. The grounds are equally special. A sleek rectangular pool serves as the centerpiece, surrounded by multiple outdoor living zones, sun-drenched decks overlooking the pool, shaded seating areas, and intimate garden nooks tucked into the greenery. Indoor-outdoor feeling is exceptional, making the home ideal for relaxed entertaining or quiet mornings with coffee and birdsong. For those with vision, a substantial sub-level area offers outstanding expansion potential. The current owners have already completed conceptual plans, providing a strong head start for future improvements. Located in a quiet neighborhood on the Palos Verdes Peninsula, the home is moments from top-rated schools, shopping, dining, hiking trails, the Palos Verdes Golf Club, the Pacific Ocean and yet feels wonderfully removed from the pace of everyday life. Available for private showings by appointment only.
